Perlick was founded in 1917, located Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The partnership was called R. Perlick Brass Works. The goal was to begin an organization that would be recognized by its peers as a responsible manufacturer of items made of brass. In the years that followed, Perlick manufactured brass fittings for in plant brewery use, along with keg fittings and cooler boxes cooled with ice. 1940 Perlick would soon develop a refrigeration department of its own, and become the top manufacturer of Bar and Beverage Equipment.

Perlick's Beverage Center features supreme versatility, not only in what it can perfectly chill inside, but also in how it can be configured into the home. The standalone models featuring polished stainless steel top and sides, it are available for indoor or outdoors use. The Beverage Center can also be integrated into the existing cabinetry for an undercabinet configuration in the kitchen, media room or den.

Inside, the Perlick Beverage Center features three vinyl-coated, full-extension shelves that completely glide out beyond the cabinet - making it easy to access items stored in the back. The top two shelves are wine racks which can accommodate up to 16 bottles of wine. The third full-extension shelf below the wine racks is perfectly equipped to store a variety of beverages and features Perlick's exclusive "guard rails" that prevent beverages from falling off the shelf.
